The
3 Foot
YMCA
I love seeing the lines of kids coming in and out of the YMCA- topped and
tailed by a leader - you
I love catching a snapshot as I walk into an activity room
* kids around a leader - you
* leaders on knees, getting down to their level - you
* the ones on the fringe of the group noticed by - you
I love that wave or smile - or both which you give me 100 feet away (when
really you could pretend you had not seen me!) by - you
I love names being used by everyone especially by - you
I love the organised activities and the free play led by - you
I love how your eyes reach out to little lives, as if to press your unique
finger print on every soul - yes - you
I love the magical YMCA three feet, where the YMCA is best, where the YMCA
achieves, that three feet when stardust is sprinkled on two people - that
three feet, the space between two people communicating, the most valuable
space on earth.
